Powering on the Loads

After the inverter is switched on, it takes a finite time to become ready to deliver full 
power. Hence, always switch on the load(s) after a few seconds of switching on the 
inverter. Avoid switching on the inverter with the load already switched on. This may 
prematurely trigger the overload protection.

When a load is switched on, it may require initial higher power surge to start. Hence, if 
multiple loads are being powered, they should be switched on one by one so that the 
inverter is not overloaded by the higher starting surge if all the loads are switched on at 
once.

Switching the inverter on/oFF

Before switching on the inverter, check that all the AC loads have been switched off. The 
oN/off switch (1) on the front panel of the inverter is used to switch on and switch off 
the inverter. This switch operates a low power control circuitry, which in turn controls all 
the high power circuitry. optional Remote Control Model RC-15A may also be used for 
oN/off control.

 

!

    cAUtion!

Please note that the oN/off switch is not switching the high power battery 
input circuit. Parts of the DC side circuit will still be alive even when the switch 
is in the off position. Hence, disconnect the DC and AC sides before working 
on any circuits connected to the inverter.

When the inverter is switched oN, the GREEN "Power oN" LED (2, fig. 6.1) will be 
lighted. This LED indicates that the input section of the inverter is operating normally. 
Under normal operating conditions, AC output voltage will now be available at the GfCI 
Duplex Receptacle (5). The Green indicator light on the GfCI will be lighted.

Switch on the AC load(s). The GREEN "Power oN" LED (2) and the indication light on 
the GfCI should remain lighted for normal operation of the load.

temperature controlled cooling Fan

The cooling fan is thermostatically controlled. Temperature of a critical hot spot inside the 
inverter is monitored to activate the fan and the over temperature shut-down. When the 
temperature of this hot spot reaches 118.4°f  / 48°C, the fan is switched oN. The fan will 
be automatically switched off once the hot spot cools down to 107.6°f / 42°C. Please note 
that the fan may not come on at low loads or if the ambient temperature is cooler. This is 
normal.

indications For normal operation

When the inverter is operating normally and supplying AC load(s), the GREEN "Power 
oN" LED (2) and the indication light on the GfCI will be lighted. Please see under "Pro-
tection Against Abnormal Conditions" and "Troubleshooting Guide" for symptoms of 
abnormal operation.
